The Khronos Projectorinteractive art installation allows users to send parts of a filmed projection forwards or backwards in time. Neat temporal waving follows.

That's pretty neat...I'd be curious to try an example of this with one of those time-lapse shot of an animal decaying. It would be the most ghoulish x-ray specs ever!

That is incredible. Makes me want to give up my job and do stuff like this...

I recall seeing a video in the 80s that must have used the same idea (but simplified): a rotating head that seemed to spiral around the rotation axis. Any ideas which one I'm talking about ?

Its not a very explicit demo frame, but I think it is from the video of which you speak.

Is it just me, or does the "untying space-time" logo remind anybody a bit too much of the time-cube guy?
